About the book

On the Literary Means of Representing the Powerful as Powerless' is an essay-poem about the ability of literature to pull the rug out from under the appearance of authority. Presented as a non-exhaustive catalogue of techniques for depicting the inherent weakness of power, it continually strays into critical commentary, sinuous digression, and bodily autobiography.0Authors and filmmakers discussed include: Gabriel García Márquez, John Cassavetes, Krishna Baldev Vaid, Jane Austen, Sam Greenlee, Émile Zola, and Patricia Highsmith.
